Seamus was at the edge of starting CDTC II when unfortunate circumstances prevented him to host. Now that he is back and able to host again, I thought it would be unfair to put him on the end of the queue. On the other hand, putting CDTC II above on the large queue might have been percieved as unfair by the other hosts who are waiting

I just tried to find a solution that holds the middle and keeps everybody happy.

But I'm open for suggestions.

Maybe limiting the number of large games to one during CDTC II might be a solution? Or once a huge game is running, the upcoming large games can't start until the huge one has ended?

If Seamus is hosting Capo II. Can i be put on hold for that time. I dont think there should be other large games while the huge one will be on.

I propose this: Lets host 2 large, one huge, 2 large, one huge. But that would be unfair for those who are waiting to host their large.
I will try to come with something else.

Oh, and Teh Oldie Town is in progress, and not in sign-up phase as descripted.

Well, it's not like we are having huge games every few weeks or so. It would be a wonderful achievement if we would have 1 or 2 each year. One can say that the CDTC games are unique. Not many of us are crazy enough to host such monsters

I think I'll do it like this: once a huge game starts running, only one other large game can run at the same time. Hosts of large games who don't want to compete/interfere with the huge game can ask to put their game on hold during the duration of the huge game without losing their place on the queue.

If there is no large game running during the huge game, then a host can start his large game at any give time (if he is on top of the large game queue or if the hosts above him on the queue agree to let him host first that is), e.g. when the huge game has reached mid game or is nearing the end and alot of the players are dead and thus losing interest in the huge game and waiting for a next, large game.
